An ugly graph but a powerful message

From the NYTImes, Economix.

The chart title — Percent change of constant-dollar median usual weekly earnings by educational attainment and sex — is a mouthful, but the message is simple:
1. Men without a 4 year college degree likely earn less than their fathers
2. Men with a 4 year college degree likely earn more
3. Women are likely earning more than their mothers, regardless of education (except for the most poorly educated)

To wit: get yourself edumacated.
